Abstract

En 中文

• This protocol provides near 100% monitorability of Blink Reflex (BR) and Corticobulbar Motor Evoked Potentials (FCoMEPs). • The BR may serve as a surrogate of FCoMEPs when they cannot be continuously monitored due to stimulus-induced movement. • Preservation of BR at the end of surgery strongly correlates with favorable long-term facial nerve outcome.
